thank you for the work that amsterdam has done in helping -- >> i thank you the global initiative for bringing us all here. >> thank you. thank you. thank you very much. >> the clintons have been cashing in. >> they took in something like $136 million. >> but have they also been selling out? >> everybody walked away from the table that night with something. >> the clintons' influence is felt all over the globe. >> the clintons did a good job. it feels like there's a but. >> will it all come back to haunt hillary. >> we're talking about uranium. we're talking about the russian government. >> we will be subjected to all

kinds of distractions and attacks. i'm ready for that. >> fox news reports, the tangled clinton from washington, d.c. brett baier. >> more concentrated power than any in the world. washington. and hillary clinton wants the top job in town. ever since she announced her candidacy for president, her past has attracted new scrutiny. she and husband bill have spent years making millions. and handing out even more to various causes. they say they're doing good work. but some people now claim their activities raise questions of influence peddling on a global scale. tonight we'll look at those charges. this is a story that goes around the world. we'll start in haiti.

january 12th, 2010 haiti suffers a devastating 7.0 earthquake. more than 200,000 die. and over 100,000 buildings and homes are destroyed. within four days u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton arrives to survey the damage. >> i want to assure the people of haiti that the united states is a friend a partner, and a supporter. >> two days later, former president clinton was on the ground. >> i hope it will be rebuilt in a much stronger and more sustainable way. and i think the hayitians want that. >> he and hillary had close ties to the country, even honeymooning there. the state department working with usaid, the agency for

international development, would oversee america's relief effort. the government of haiti set up the ihrc interim haiti recovery commission to coordinate. two men were named co-chairs of the ihrc executive committee. haitian prime minister, and bill clinton himself. the idea was to not just fix things but improve them. in an interview with esquire, president clinton had big plans, saying quote, wouldn't it be great if they became the first wireless nation in the world. they could, i'm telling you, they really could. but it wasn't at all clear that the people of haiti would be the big winners in the disaster relief gold rush. >> anytime there's a natural disaster anywhere there is a lot of money potentially to be made reconstruction contracts, and relief contracts, et cetera. >> peter schwiser is the author of the new book "clinton cash" where he investigates the snarl

of money, politics and personal interest that has come to characterize the clinton interactions around the world. clinton cash is published by harper collins, a sister company to fox news. >> shortly after the earthquake took place, the u.s. ambassador in haiti sent a cable to the state department part of which was, the gold rush is on. and it was about the fact that businessman and companies were showing up in haiti trying to seek lucrative contracts. >> it was the job of the ihrc to oversee this process. and to ensure no one took advantage of the situation. but what if it was part of the problem. >> a number of members of the ihrc actually wrote a letter expressing their concerns that they were not involved in the process. that all the decisions would be made by clinton and the prime minister. in addition they argued that the national priority of haiti were basically totally being disregarded by the decisions

that were being made. >> as haiti dug itself out of the rubble many projects were initiated. often with u.s. money, and a connection to the clintons. for instance there was the haitian mobile money initiative where a much-needed system was created to help transfer money via cell phones. there was also a plan to raise money by exploiting haiti's rich mineral wealth. >> the haitian government announces that they're going to offer two so-called gold exploitation permits. the first issued in 50 years in haiti, that would allow for the extraction of the gold mining in the country. >> perhaps the most celebrated project of all was the industrial park. >> what is happening here is already having ripple effects that will create jobs and opportunities far beyond this industrial park. >> the grand opening was a big deal. you had bill clinton there,

hillary clinton there, donna karen, the fashion designer. you had ben stiller. you had sean penn. lots of people showed up to say how wonderful this facility was going to be for everybody. >> but as all these projects moved forward, questions were raised. the central question? the question which schwiser investigated was how so many of these deals seemed to come back at some point to the clintons. >> what quickly became apparent to many people is if you wanted a contract if you wanted to do business in haiti, you had to have relationships with the clintons. that was absolutely key. >> the company that cleaned up on the cell phone transfers was digicell. >> running up to september 2012 they took in more than $50 million in revenue in haiti. >> digicell is run by irish billionaire dennis o'brien who set up lucrative speeches for bill clinton as well as donating millions of money to the clinton

foundation. one company that got a rare gold permit was dcs mining which didn't actually have much mining experience. but would soon have hillary clinton's brother, tony rodham on its board. as for the industrial park the anchor tenant is a korean manufacturer which supplies major u.s. retailers. who also happened to be big clinton supporters. and while the state department promised 65,000 jobs to date only 5,000 have been delivered. as for those other projects they didn't exactly work out as promised. we'll go into depth on that later in the program. but first, though bill clinton may have left office a while ago, he and hillary's influence is still felt worldwide. and their fingers are in a whole lot of pies. when we return we look into this world of clinton clout, how

it came to be, and how it operates. to be how do crest 3d white whitestrips compare to a whitening toothpaste? let's see! the paste didn't seem to do much for me. the whitestrips made a huge difference. but that's not fair. ha-ha. crest whitestrips work below the enamel surface to whiten 25x better than a leading whitening toothpaste. crest whitestrips, the way to whiten.

why are all these people so asleep yet i'm so awake? did you know your brain has two systems? one helps keep you awake- the other helps you sleep. science suggests when you have insomnia, the wake system in your brain may be too strong and your neurotransmitters remain too active as you try to sleep, which could be leading to your insomnia. ohh...maybe that's what's preventing me from getting the sleep i need! talk to your doctor about ways to manage your insomnia.

to cat the clinton story, here's ed henry. >> my fellow citizens tonight is my last opportunity to speak to you from the oval office as your president. >> january 2001 bill clinton has completed two terms as president, but he had bills to play. >> we came out of the white house dead broke. bill has worked really hard. >> thank you. >> that he has, traveling around the world making speeches at $750,000 a pop. hillary clinton has also made six-figure sums for her personal appearances. >> the tlnts, particularly after bill left office went from being dead broke to being fabulously wealthy. the estimates are in the income

since his exit of the presidency they put in something like $136 million. >> peter schweitzer is author of a book now due out. >> the bottom line is nobody in america political history has come close to going from being dead broke to being fabulously wealthy in such a short period of time. >> when confronted about all of that income in that interview with diane sawyer hillary explains. >> i thought making speeches for money was a much better thing than getting connected with any one group or company. as so many people who leave public life do. >> there was also an organization that the clintons put up with an agenda an entity that would take in a lot more money than their income combined. people in manhattan probably have no idea who the tenant is on the 17th floor.

the headquarters of the bill hillary and chelsea clinton foundation. he's not president anymore. she's not president yet. still, the clinton foundation represents the sort of global power founded in 2001 as a william j. clinton presidential foundation are marshalling government and private se sources to attack global hunger poverty, climate change and disease. in other words, basically solving the world's problems. >> together we can be there for all of our neighbors around the block, around the country, and around the world. >> he is enormously proud it of. >> a fox news contributor and former advisers to the clintons have done work for their foundation. >> he can go anywhere in the world, and promote social justice in ways that virtually no one else alive can do. >> as it happens, the clintons' big new project situated them at the nexus of global money, influence and power.

>> you have to start with people. you have to give them a chance to live the best life they can. >> it's been estimated over the years the foundation has raised over $1 billion. >> these contributions to the clinton foundation is for these speaking themes are being provided not simply out of the kindness of the hearts of these individuals, but because they want something from the clintons. and my contention is there seems to be a pattern of behavior in which they are actually giving those individuals what they want. >> many high ranking politicians in both parties have set up foundations. but the clintons are a power couple unlike any the world has ever seen. for not only is bill an ex-president already a rare power broker but in hillary, they've got someone who was a senator, then a secretary of state, and who might be president. >> the clinton foundation i have some questions on that topic. like a lot of folks, i have some

concerns of an appearance of conflict of interest between his work meaning the foundation's and the secretary of state. >> they said there would be a fear of influence vetting. >> the obama transition team was concerned about the fact that there had been such a large flow of funds through the clinton foundation and also to the clintons' personal accounts because of the speaking fees. so they wanted to set up a structure of accountability. >> this led to a memorandum of understanding. which had explicit requirements for both clintons. >> one was that they were going to disclose all new contributions to the clinton foundation. the second was, if there were any government funds, or foreign government businesses that were going to donate to the foundation that would require approval by the state department. and then the third requirement was that bill clinton's speeches and/or any consulting arrangements that he might have

with outside parties also needed to be vetted by the state department. >> hillary became secretary of state and the clinton foundation continued to do its work. but suspicions lingered. >> people weren't getting access to a former president, and then secretary of state, what were they getting? >> they were getting the ability to participate in large-scale social welfare programs in their home countries or regions of interest or importance, to change the world, and to be a partner with the president of the united states or former secretary of state on life-changing endeavors. >> the bottom line is the clintons have been called lots of things by their friends and enemies over the years. the one phrase that i've never seen associated with the clintons is the word naive. >> when we return, we'll look at what the clinton foundation is doing around the world. charitable work for sure. but is there something more calculated. k can tow a boat. every truck can climb a hill.

every truck can haul a trailer. but not everyone can say they're the fastest-growing truck brand in america. guts. glory. ram. huh, 15 minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance. everybody

♪ your ticket to a better night's sleep ♪ the dealings of bill and hillary are part of what peter schweitzer calls the clinton blur, a mix of money and politics, diplomacy and personal interest. all so interconnected that it is easy to get lost. >> it's so hard when you look at the clintons to try to figure out where the charity ends and begins, where their profit making ends and begins and where their official power as secretary of state or senator ends and begins. and the problem is, they all get blurred together. >> to put together his book "clinton cash," schweitzer and team of researchers spent more than a year untangling the web.

he took us through a number of these cases. for instance, there's money from the middle east. >> the united arab emirates wants to have a close relationship with the united states. and in 2011 they are under pressure from the obama administration and hillary clinton's state department because of iran's sanction. and that is certain eau companies are continuing to transfer from u.s. shipment points to iran. >> okay so now fast forward a couple of months on december 12th, you have the foreign minister of the united arab emirates who is flying to washington, d.c. to meet with the secretary of state, hillary clinton, over some troubling issues. that very same day the foreign minister's brother, who is the crown prince is paying bill clinton half a million dollars for a speech in abu dhabi. >> they did not put out a formal about the president's speech, but they put out charitables from around the world.

there's money from europe. >> in 2009 the swedish telecom company is coming under pressure for selling to oppressive governments around the world. in the midst of all of it, they decide to pay bill clinton to give a speech for the first time ever. they pay him a whopping $750,000. >> soon after hillary clinton's state department urged new, broader sanctions against iran. but the guidelines did not include telecom. which is ericsson's business. they interviewed our request to interview them. they said it should be seen in light of clinton's crowd pull the fact that he had to travel to hong kong for the event and that the event spanned two days. the company insists that the conversation regarding iran had

no impact on the decision. there's money from south america. in june 2010 bill clinton was in columbia. >> bill clinton meets with the then president of colombia to discuss matters in private. what is curious is that hillary clinton is in colombia at the same time. after bill leaves the presidential palace, hillary clinton comes in and has lunch with the president of colombia where she signed some technical agreements and explains her commitment to a free trade agreement between colombia and the united states. >> the very same trade agreement she had pledged to defeat while running for president in 2008. >> as i have said for months, i oppose the deal, i have spoken out against the deal, i will vote against the deal and i will do everything i can to urge the congress to reject the colombian free trade deal. >> also in colombia with bill clinton was frank justra, a billionaire businessman and family friend we'll meet again.

let's go down the timeline as you have it. >> frank justra, a canadian billionaire, arrives in colombia with bill clinton on june 8th, 2010. hillary at that same time meets with president arebe. what's troubling is that in the days that follow frank justra who is ronone of the largest contributors of the clinton foundation has three of his companies make major concessions from the areba government in colombia. >> president uribe never responded to our questions on the money in the deal. >> and saudi arabia announces with bill in london that he's giving $20 million to the clinton foundation. this raises lots of questions with ethiopian troops in the west. because they are very concerned about the repressive government in ethiopia and the fact that

the shaikh has a large business empire in ethiopia. he does not have a history of philanthropy. and they actually write a letter to bill clinton, and they say explicitly we have reason to believe that the huge donation of the clinton foundation was made on behalf of the ethiopian government. >> when hillary clinton becomes secretary of state, one of the things that she needs to do is certify ethiopia on human rights but hillary clinton granted them a waiver which allowed them to continue u.s. assistance. >> muhammad alamudi said he does not give media interviews. instead he sent us a fact sheet of all the support he's given to aids awareness. these are a few of the many stories schweitzer documents in his book. >> bill clinton averaged around 175 to 500,000 over the years. the problem is that once hillary

becomes secretary of state in 2009 he gets paid half a million dollars or more to give a speech, one speech overseas. it increases dramatically. thanks for calling angie's list. how may i help you? i heard i could call angie's list if i needed work done around my house at a fair price. you heard right, just tell us what you need done and we'll find a top rated provider to take care of it. so i could get a faulty light switch fixed? yup! or have a guy refinish my floors? absolutely! or send someone out to groom my pookie? pookie's what you call your? my dog. yes, we can do that. real help from real people. come see what the new angie's list can do for you. automotive innovation starts... right here. with a control pad than can read your handwriting, a wide-screen multimedia center, and a head-up display for enhanced driver focus. all inside a redesigned cabin of unrivaled style and comfort.

so far we've seen stories so far we've seen stories of the clinton blur as schweitzer puts it. wheeling and dealing that makes philanthropy politics and lots of hard cold cash. the clintons use their influence to raise funds. were both themselves and causes supported by their foundation all while skirting the rules by doing favors for their ben e benefactors benefactors. it can have far-reaching effects on the national scene. consider the stunning case of kazakhstan.

and how american uranium ended up in the hands of the russians. remember businessman and clinton friend frank justra? he figures in this story, too. september 6th, 2005 bill clinton shows up in kazakhstan where frank justra a canadian investor has been trying to get control to buy a couple of uranium mines. and he became partners in a way with bill clinton, working on philanthropic activities. >> we have an idea about creating an initiative to alleviate poverty. >> furthermore, frank justra has been involved in helping to facilitate speaking engagements for the clintons. >> frank justra and bill clinton were whisked to the presidential palace of the president in kazakhstan and it's a fascinating story because everybody walked away from the table that night with something. >> it caught the attention of

pulitzer prize winner. >> he got this huge propaganda. bill clinton basically endorsed the progress that kazakhstan had made. in terms of their own democracy, which was sort of interesting, given that the president was left with 90 plus percent of the vote. in an election that was widely criticized as being rigged. >> bill clinton has a public press conference with the president, where he praises his rule and human rights practices. the bottom line is after they leave, a couple of days later, frank justra gets his uranium mine which ends up being enormously lucrative to him and to a small group of canadian mining investors. >> his company was like a bit player. and really had gone from worthless shell company overnight, got this huge uranium mining deal and then soon after that bill clinton got a huge

donation $31 million from frank justra through his charitable foundation followed by a pledge to donate $100 million more. >> our calls to the kazakhstan embassy were never returned. we talked to frank justra who told us he considers this an old story. and said that he's not interested in politics. meanwhile, his defenders insist that no undue influence was exerted in kazakhstan because the deal did not require the kazakh government's approval. >> the problem is there are corporate records that indicate very very clearly that the kazakh government did have to sign off and approve. >> that's what we're looking at here. >> exactly. this is what we're looking at here. which is the amended memorandum of understanding that states december 15th, 2005 between the ministry of energy of the republic of kazakhstan and the atomic agency in the kadszakh

government. they were signatory to this agreement. >> and there's a post-script to the kazakhstan tab. >> kazakh officials wanted to take a stake in westinghouse which is a u.s. company that works in the nuclear field. >> when you have a sensitive field, that requires review by the u.s. government. >> so the potential investors came to america to see the man who could make things happen. >> frank justra arranged for the kazakh officials to go to bill clinton's house in chappaqua. when i contacted both the clinton foundation the clinton spokesman and mr. justra they denied any such meeting ever took place. and then when we told them well we had already talked to the head of kazakhstan who has a picture of him and bill at the

home in chappaqua, and that he proudly displayed on his office wall they then acknowledged that yes, the meeting had taken place. >> so what happened to justra's company that benefited from that deal in kazakhstan? after a merger it became a uranium giant. called uranium one. and then the russians bought it. >> uranium one became very active in acquiring uranium assets actually in the united states itself. by 2008 2009 they were particularly attractive target for the russian government. >> and the russians acquired that target. >> they would acquire what would amount to 50% of projected uranium output by 2015. >> in other words, russia now controls what was projected to be up to half of america's uranium. does secretary clinton factor into this? >> for that deal to go through, it needs federal government

approval. one of the people who has to approval that deal is secretary of state hillary clinton. >> who as senator clinton was vigorously opposed to these kind of buys from countries into the u.s. property. >> that's a great point, brett. the dubai ports deal that she was opposed to. >> we believe no foreign government should control our ports. >> in this particular case we're talking about uranium. we're talking about things that relate to the nuclear industry. we're talking about the russian government. >> which already provides equipment, materiel to iran. >> that's correct. >> just how deeply the uranium investments were invested in the clintons was not disclosed by them or their foundation. schweitzer learned about that by securing canadian records. >> firmwood foundation is an entity in canada controlled by ian helper who ends up being

the chairman. ian hellfer in 2007 made an individual contribution into the clinton foundation. the problem is based on canadian tax records, in this particular case made a payment of $250,000 to the clinton-justra initiative. they failed to disclose that. this is a hidden contribution. over the course of a couple of years, you're talking about more than $2 million from the firmwood foundation to the clinton foundation. when you actually go to the clinton foundation website itself on disclosures and type in fernwood you find no contributions ristd. >> uranium one and ian hellfer declined to comment. what this amounts to in the end is a russian company essentially controlled by vladimir putin, will now be in charge of a substantial portion of american uranium. russia sends uranium to its

client state union. so american uranium could well be sent to the very nation we're negotiating with to try to slow its ability to develop a nuclear weapon. thus we see how far reaching the effect of the clinton blur as schwiser puts it can be. after the break, we return to haiti, and see how relief from the clinton foundation has worked out.

>> test >> earlier we looked at the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake in haiti. and the various rebuilding projects. but five years later, what are the results? our john roberts traveled from one end of haiti to the other, to find the answer. this is the hilltop home of the prime minister of haiti in 2010 when the devastating earthquake hit. together with former president bill clinton he headed up the interim haiti commission where the billions of dollars that was pouring into haiti would eventually be spent. he explained to me the importance of having bill clinton on the commission. >> we needed a figure that will attract the people to keep haiti in the news.

>> is bill clinton the image you needed? >> the one we thing of at the time. because he was already involved in haiti. we needed an image. i believe in his role of president of the commission he did well. >> you believed bill clinton did a good job. it sounds like there's a but. >> there's a lot of buts not only one, and not all linked to him. perhaps we're asking too much of president clinton. perhaps we were leaning too much in what he could bring. >> much good work has been done in haiti, no question. debris has been removed, houses have been built, and roads have been repaired. but to peter schweitzer for all that help there are certain projects that need more scrutiny. projects the clintons got behind. you would expect that there would be high standards of transparency that there would be high standards of accountability. angh you would also have ethical

standards that would prevent you from giving contracts or concessions through benefits to people who are putting money in your pocket. >> for instance there's the story of digicell. almost anyplace you go anywhere in haiti you'll see signs for digicel. the reason they have such prominence in haiti is maybe because they have friends in high places. after the earthquake the clintons pushed for a useful way for friends and relatives to send money into the ravaged nation. the chief beneficiary from the clintons' initiative is a company called digicel owned by dennis o'brien. >> an irish billionaire who made his money in the telecom industry. >> shortly after the clintons began reconstruction in haiti, and began handing out contracts, sometime during that period of 2010 or 2011 he made a multimillion dollar contribution to the clinton foundation.

>> there were also speeches. >> bill clinton gets paid to give three lucrative speeches which are arranged by dennis o'brien. >> but the money flowed in both directions. >> two of the speeches that bill clinton gives are actually sandwiched around digicel giving a grant to the taxpayers of $100,000. at the same time you have taxpayer money, $2 billion, being committed to the digicel foundation in jamaica. >> still, the biggest profit was the tens of millions digicel made by getting the haiti deal. >> their profits grew enormously their market share grew enormously. it allowed them to become the biggest player by far in the haitian mobile phone network. >> dennis o'brien declined to speak with us. for such a small andive pof rished country, haiti has been very valuable mineral deposits.

i'm standing on top of what could one day be an open pit gold and silver mine. estimates are there could be as much as $150 million of ore in these hills. it's been 50 years they've given out permits for open mines, but when they did in 2012 guess who got it. >> it was based out of north carolina that had little experience in mining to begin with. this was a potentially, very lucrative concession. >> so why was this particular company given such a prize concession? peter schweitzer thinks he knows. and it has something to do with hillary clinton's brother. >> tony rodham meets the executives from dcs mining in september of 2012 at a clinton global initiative seminar. three months later, the haitian government grants the gold exploitation permit. literally, within the year, tony

rodham is placed on the board of dcs mining. tony rodham has no background in haiti and no background in mining. it begs credulity. >> rodham did not return our phone calls. they maintain there is no connection between the permit and rodham's seat on the board. of all the projects the one that probably made the biggest splash was carico industrial park. in the end it may have been the biggest disappointment. it's located about 85 miles north of port-au-prince. far from the damage callsed by the earthquake. according to the state department it was designed to create up to 65,000 jobs. in october 2012 bill and hillary along with haitian heads of state and several celebrities were there for the launch. >> u.s. taxpayer money was poured in to build housing and

infrastructure in the area. more than $100 million was committed for this effort. >> building up the area meant first kicking out the farmers who had been there for generations. their homes were bulldozed. >> were people frightened? were they upset? >> translator: everybody was basically in shock. not understanding what was going on with their hands in the air and screaming and crying. >> did you talk to them? did you ask them what they were doing? >> translator: there were people with guns apparently to force them to leave the area so they could not really do much. >> how many people are worse off since the industrial park was built? we did contact the textile company, but so far, they haven't gotten back to us about paying them a visit. i was able to round up a worker at caricoal.

i can't identify him, because he's afraid of losing his job. he works from 6:45 in the morning until 5:00 p.m. getting paid 225 gourds a day, which is about 5 u.s. dollars. >> translator: it's not near what it should be. because of the lack of jobs availability in this country, you pretty much have to take that. >> how does he describe the working conditions? >> caller: conditions very very tough. everybody's pretty much frustrated in relation to the work load and what they're getting paid. but again, it's take it or leave it type of situation. >> he's still hopeful the future will hold more for him. but at present, it's hardly the economic salvation originally promised. not only does it not pay well there are only about 5,000 of them not near what was expected. the state department says those jobs will materialize eventually. in a decade or so. in the meantime who is the

project helping? well, a few american companies are benefiting from the chief haitian labor. the three biggest beneficiaries were actually three retailing companies closely tied to the clintons. gap, target and walmart. >> a lot of money was given to haiti after the earthquake. much of it was put to good use. but according to peter schweitzer too much was used to line the pockets of people with clinton connections. when we return hillary is running. will any of this come back to haunt her. ny of this come back to haunt her? there's some facts about seaworld we'd like you to know. we don't collect killer whales from the wild. and haven't for 35 years. with the hightest standard of animal care in the world, our whales are healthy. they're thriving. i wouldn't work here if they weren't. and government research shows they live just as long as whales in the wild. caring for these whales, we have a great responsibility to get that right.

as the presidential candidate, hillary clinton offers something new and different. she would be the first female

president. she also offers something that may be too familiar. she's a politician with a long history. the pundits are already asking how her past may affect the future. >> i'm getting ready to do something, too. i'm running for president. >> one of hillary's first big decisions as an official candidate for president was to quit the clinton foundation. she said she was leaving to quote, devote myself to this new all-encompassing endeavor. >> there are new questions on the hillary clinton campaign as new details emerge -- >> a few days later on april 15th with the clinton foundation coming under increased scrutiny they changed their policy regarding donations from foreign governments. from now on the foundation would only take contributions from friendly western governments, like canada and germany. of course even under these limitations, there could still be donations from someone like ian tellfer, the canadian who as we mentioned earlier was

chairman of the russian-owned company uranium one. but even as hillary was distancing herself from the foundation she couldn't avoid questions about its activities. with investigative book "clinton cash" shaping up to be a political bombshell, she responded to a reporter's inquiries while campaigning in new hampshire on april 20th. while brushing aside the book's claims. >> we're back into the political season and therefore we will be subjected to all kinds of distractions and attacks. >> people are going to have to believe that all of this was on the up and up and that nobody was trying to buy influence and all of this was fine. or there's going to be a suspicion hanging over her that is likely to hang over her for the rest of this campaign and into the general election if she gets that far. >> people are already questioning clinton's trust worthiness. in a fox news poll 51% felt she

was not honest. this was asked before the revelations about the clinton foundation making headlines. meanwhile, in a speech bill clinton avoided the controversy. >> for obvious reasons i don't intend to talk much about electoral topics. >> but even if the clintons won't say anything substantive, the clinton camp is preparing for an onslaught. >> we're not big on quitting in my family. you may have noticed that. >> on april 23rd, clinton campaign press secretary brian fallon offered a specific denial of charges made in a "new york times" story about uranium one. stating, quote, no one has produced a shred of evidence that hillary clinton ever took action as secretary of state in order to support the interest of donors to the clinton foundation. to suggest the state department under then secretary clinton exerted undue influence in the u.s. government's review of the

sale of uranium one is utterly baseless. and legal experts suggest there may even be legal peril facing the clintons down the road. >> she's not protected by the fact that her husband may have taken money, or if her husband's foundation are attributed to each other, and that is no excuse or defense. >> but if media response to the book is any indication this controversy does not seem likely to go away anytime soon. >> too much other media have weighed in with their own reporting on this to make this just go away by saying it's just a republican conspiracy. the news reports at the journal are not and we are not. >> the clintons are no stranger to controversy. bill rode out more than a few in the day. if the charges we've just looked at gain traction will hillary be as lucky. or will people worry that another clinton administration could mean influence peddling on

a scale never before imagined. either way, the clintons seem to be aware that this is a question demanding a response. that's our show. thanks for watching. every truck can tow a boat. every truck can climb a hill. every truck can haul a trailer. but not everyone can say they're the fastest-growing truck brand in america. guts. glory. ram.

there. make it a great weekend. >> now the white house digging itself deep into the clinton cash scandal dodging questions. when asked today at the press briefing if then secretary of state hillary clinton had publicly disclosed to the white house the $2 million donation from uranium one to t foundation did press secretary earnst answer? the question calls for a simple yes or no. so did ernst answer? nope. and it gets worse. ernst went on attack. >> is it fair to say the white house believes that as secretary of state hillary clinton's behavior both in the capacity of her office and with that of the clinton foundation met the ethical standard of this white house? >> kevin i can say in no uncertain terms that there has been no evidenc
